old comrades, is the fact that he has gathered
together, in q little room back of his store, q
perfect museum Of curiosities and relics re-
lating to the old Fire Department, which has
proved of the utmost interest To his visitors.
The collection, of which Mr.. Smith is very
proud, for he has spent many years in getting
it together, contains nearly twenty-five hun
dred different relics and mementoes. Some
Of these are very rare and cannot now be
duplicated. For instance. there are 694 old
helmet fronts for privates, thirty six white
officers fronts and thirty-four presentation
fronts. some of them of colossal size. These
last. of course. were not meant to be worn,
but were simply intended to be preserved as
mementoes. A large one, presented by New
Haven to the New York companies on the oc-
casion of a, visit many years ago, is O very
handsome piece of work printed in oil-color.
Theh there are 236 metal badges, 1856 silk
badges and any number of portraits.
Some of the old fronts present the most in
teresting features Of the collection. One,
which is in an excellent state of preservation,
belonged to ex-Mayor William H. Wickham
when he was foreman of Hook and Ladder
Company No. Is and bears his name in full.
Another has the inscription Nv. M. Tweed"
and belonged to the notorious ringleader Of
the political gang that robbed the city Of so
many millions, when he ran with the famous
big Six" Zopha Mills. Andrew j. Garvey,
who was q member of Friendship Hook and
Ladder Company, Alonzo Slote, the clothier.
and several other gentlemen who have since
become prominent merchants or politicians
in this city, many of them still living, are
also represented by these battered old leather
fronts.
The collection of certificates is very inter-
esting, especially to the old volunteers, for
1t is extensive and goes back as far as 1903,
when the blank form was o colored litho-
gragh. A certificate of 1929 issued to Samuel
Y Smith, is different from any of the others
and is believed to be the only one of its kind
In existence. One of the Oldest fronts in ex-
istence is in the collection and is valued at
800. The original owner is not known. A
helmet of the Fifth District Hose Company
No. %, which was a famous organization in
the old time is also regarded as q great curl
osity. as 1t is the only one of its kind in New
York. Some of the rarest relics are placed
under glass cases. One of these is shrfvelled
helmet, a piece of hose, with q brass nozzle
attached. The former belonged to James 7.
Laurie, who was killed while attempting an
act of unusual daring at the burning of the
City Assembly Rooms, 440-46 Broadway,
